Cystopen Capsule 10's is a low-molecular-weight heparin-like compound used to provide relief from bladder pain and discomfort associated with intestinal cystitis. Intestinal cystitis is a disease that causes scarring and swelling of the bladder wall. It is a painful bladder syndrome with bladder pressure, bladder pain, and pelvic pain.
Cystopen Capsule 10's contains Pentosan polysulfate, which works by preventing irritation of the bladder walls by binding to the mucosal membrane of the intestine. This helps in preventing the irritating chemicals present in the urine from coming in contact with the bladder wall. Thereby, Cystopen Capsule 10's provides relief from the discomfort associated with intestinal cystitis.
